Two thoughts...:
I have two thoughts on this. One, it could be the foods you're eating, of course, different when eating out as opposed to home. Two, could be an anxiety reaction - social phobia, or a fear of being out in public, or a fear of crowds in general.

Get to the ER:
Even if it isn't something serious, you need to get something to stop the vomiting. At this point, only an er can offer that. They also need to assess the dark brown/ black liquid. That is likely to be old blood.

Nausea in the mornin:
There are several causes for nausea in the morning that range from hormonal changes in the body, to medications, to stomach/bowel irritation from food sources and infections, to ulcers and beyond. I would try to find out the cause of the nausea by seeing a GI specialist. The gag reflex is a normal reaction when nauseated and mucus may be from the stomach or the throat. Needs to be evaluated more.

The bleeding is:
NOT normal and is likely due to the mechanical effect of vomiting PLUS possible esophagitis/gsatritis form your alcohol abuse (YES this is considered alcohol "abuse:) Any more than a little bleeding should send you to the Emergency Room at once...if the bleeding is just ONCE and as you say "intertwined" with mucous you should recover. Use antacids for 24 hours and ASAPTalk FRANKLY with your PCP!

Even:
Even if you hadn't vomited oral contraceptives are not 100% effective. In practical usage the rate is 96-98%. Practical usage incorporates factors such as missed or late pills. In your case if you had taken all the other pills you are likely in the 96% proctection range. From the date of your question I suspect you know the answer to by now. Please let us know.

Yes,:
Yes, a person can vomit after being punched in the stomach as the organs in the stomach are your digestive organs where food is digested. The trauma and pain of the punch can cause nausea and vomitingit is not, however, normal to be punched in the stomach! If you are a victim of abuse, get help, call 911 if you need help.

Yes:
Newborn is usually sleepy when his/her weight is still below the birth weight. Newborn begins to cry for hunger when he/she has regained his birth-weight, and your milk supply is well established. Once he/she is gaining weight steadily, and your milk supply is well established, you can let baby feeds on demand.

Yes:
Sleep intervals are driven initially by feeding schedules and need for restorative sleep. Babies who need a feed will generally wake for it. As they pass 8 or so pounds they can sleep longer between feeds and those approaching 10 lb may go all night without. As long as they are thriving and feeding well during the day, you rarely need to wake them. Premi's/those under 8 lb would be the exception.

About 1 oz an hour:
From birth to 6 months, newborns take in about one ounce per hour of day. So if you're feeding every 3-4 hours, about 3-4 ounces is appropriate. Each baby is different, however, so as long as they are gaining weight on a normal curve, they should be fine. Find more info here: http://kellymom.

Wide range of normal:
There is a wide range of normal feeding times, but babies at this age should certainly go no longer than 4 hours between feedings. Most feed every 2-3 hours. The key is that your baby is having 4-6 wet diapers per day which suggests that they are well hydrated. I would discuss with your pediatrician.

Yes:
Newborns are wired to suckle 24/7 as a reflex. Try not to confuse the reflex with hunger. Hunger is a learned feeling, a desire to feel better if an emty stomach sends the message. If baby has just eaten, the stomach is not sending that message, but baby may accept a feed for comfort if offered. Breast fed stomachs can empty every 2 hours, formula taked longer. Newborns grow fast and eat often.

Feeding:
Every time anyone eats before the stomach empties starts the digestive process over again and your stomach never gets a break. Your baby needs to go at least 90 minutes between feedings so his/her stomach can empty before filling it up again. This will help with digestion and having your baby on a schedule is better for you and your child..

Newborns:
Sleep 18 hours in the beginning & are awake only 6 hours. Most will wake up like clockwork every three hours for a feeding, others every 4-5 hours & a very small percentage 6-8 hours! As long as your baby is taking adequate amount for growth, you should not worry. U can wake ur baby up every three hours during the day to feed & let her sleep thru the night for 8 hours-uninterrupted so can you!
